I believe the main reason for only demonstrating stalls in the more degraded control modes is that without degradation, you don't get much of anything happening - the aircraft just sits at the envelope limited alpha and waits for you to get bored.

And other types can also end up stalling with trim settings in unfortunate positions - the recent B737 incident in the UK being one relatively recent example.
